These are so tasty and a great boost of protein in the morning (9g per serving!). I use a really good quality chocolate bar and chop it up before melting - sometimes with a little of the coconut oil. I often make them and freeze them. They require no cooking whatsoever - my kind of baking! All whole ingredients and can be made gluten free.
Ingredients (for 16 servings)
1 cup (4 oz) vanilla protein powder (or natural protein powder)
1 cup (3 1⁄2 oz) rolled oats (or brown rice flakes or quinoa flakes if gluten free)
6 1⁄2 oz whole almonds (roasted) chopped
1 cup (2 1⁄2 oz) flaxseeds
2 oz pitted dates chopped
1⁄3 cup (4 oz) honey (rice malt syrup or maple syrup) warmed
2 tbs (1 1⁄2 oz) coconut oil melted
1 1⁄2 oz 70% dark chocolate melts
Method
Line a 21cm loaf tin with baking paper.
Combine protein powder, oats, almonds, flaxseeds and dates in a bowl, mixing well.
In a separate bowl, combine honey and coconut oil and mix into dry ingredients.
Press mixture very firmly into prepared tin, smoothing the top with the back of a spoon.
Place chocolate in a non-plastic bowl and melt in the microwave for 1 minute, then 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until fully melted. Transfer to a small piping bag or ziplock bag (cutting the corner off) and drizzle over loaf. Alternatively, pour chocolate in one even layer over top and smooth out with a spoon.
Refrigerate for 2 hours to set and cut into 16 even pieces.
I would love to claim these as my own, but the recipe came from the CENTR app (Chris Hemsworth's training app).
